In Chicago:
I’m old enough to remember when they arrested a man paddle boarding by himself in the ocean a month ago pic.twitter.com/kSPtNFkYwE

And it was not that long ago that the Mayor of Chicago, Mrs. Beetlejuice said this:
I’m not playing. Stay home (your own home). Save lives.https://t.co/jPUdaRsoTp pic.twitter.com/bStBdWKIVT

Either masks and social distancing are necessary to the survival of humanity or not. Unless you want to sell me now that the virus cuts according to skin pigmentation.
Did you miss the memo?
COVID kills more black people but requiring them to wear masks is racist because cops might think that they are criminals hiding their ID and kill them.
Chicago is lost. Downtown is a dangerous shithole, and most of the buildings are boarded up. Every weekend, the yourhful community members take the Red Line downtown to sightsee, loot and attack whitey.
Bloomingdales was attacked and looted for the second (third?) time last Friday by the rioters that attacked the police guarding the Christopher Columbus Statue in Grant Park.
I think that post COVID and post BLM riots, lots of cities will look like Detroit. White Flight. Business Flight. Sane Taxpayer Minority Flight. Huge homeless encampments. Busted Pension Plans. Municipal Bond Defaults.
Arson of empty buildings by vandals, assorted pyromaniacs, and property owners cutting their losses. Empty and burnt out storefronts will cause the few existing businesses to go bankrupt, because no one wants to shop in a wasteland, especially a Criminal Friendly Downtown.
No Democrat will do anything to reverse the problems, and stop the root causes. They will pretend to try, and pour millions and billions into the same failed socialist programs that never helped Detroit, Baltimore, and East Saint Louis. Billions will be wasted.
